I'm sorry...but some of that stuff I have to call bullshit on...

For instance...Alfred Hitchcock not having a belly button? Unless it was surgically removed or something... I don't see how he could have been born.

But some of the interesting things...that MIGHT be true... The name "Wendy" was invented in the book Peter Pan? It didn't exist before then?!

"The venom in a Daddy Long-Legs spider is more poisonous than the venom of a
Black Widow but they cannot bite humans because their jaws won't open wide enough."

That one has been disproven several times over. Daddy Long-legs in fact CAN and do bite people, they just aren't that venomous.

"The airplane Buddy Holly died in was the 'American Pie.' (Thus the name of the Don McLean song.)"

Also incorrect. They were riding a Piper Cherokee light aircraft with no name. Light aircraft like that are typically NOT named.

"About one-third of recorded CDs are pirated."

I don't know on this one, but I call bullshit.

"The most populated city in the world is Tokyo, with 30 million residents."

I was under the impression Mexico City had more people.
